Actually they should be working fine as long as you're not using
INDEX=MEMORY or for some other reason deleting index files. Also most
clients don't really use recent counters for anything so it hasn't been
too much of a problem anyway..
I have a nice plan to fix them well, but I'd rather do it after the
larger changes I'm currently doing.
